hello.

In theory yes mk2 an mk3 suspension is the same but mk3 has higher spring rates to account for the mk3 being 100KG+ more than a mk2.

Also bare in mind that GTIs are either 15 or 25mm lower than a standard model from the factory so a 60mm suspension kit for a GTI 16v will lower a standard model nearer 85mm.

What exactly are you hoping to achive ?
